In Virgin Gorda, part of the British Virgin Islands, Easter means party time. Not the pastel color wearing, formal family meals, and delectable dessert for the kids type party. Because this annual festival occurs around Easter and coincides with carnival there will be treats and love to go round. Instead of pastel, muted colors expect frivolous and intricate brightly colored bikini style costumes. There’s no soft music playing in the background of family meals expect to be dancing down open streets a giant music truck leading the way. For masqueraders food is consumed only to retain sustenance for spectators there’s local dishes all around to be devoured. It’s Easter in Virgin Gorda and also carnival.
